  1. Shoulda, coulda, woulda! People are dead now so it really doesn’t matter!

  2. From Toronto Canada. If I was a paid officer responding to a school shooting situation with children, I would have planned on route with 2 other officers and get to the shooter. I would deal with the police politics, after. I know, if your not a pig, policing is tough. In America, police should save kids

  3. Sanitizer = safety. Safety for the person using it AND everyone they might touch. Ridiculous to try to turn that moment into anything it is not. Doctors/medics/nurses sanitize or scrub up for safety prior to every interaction with a patient/victim and we don't go all high school English class analysis on them… Why wouldn't you want an officer's hands sanitized prior to possibly applying pressure to an open wound?

  4. He invited

    He incited

    They rioted

    Then he denied it

    Even though he'd implied it

    Now he must be indicted.

  5. Manchin looks like Matlock lol

  6. National Emergency for Roe V Wade – Bull S, how about real issues, Southern Border wide open, millions flowing in, not vaccinated, given paid transportation to your city, drugs flowing in, criminals running the streets, US Citizens are not safe, Inflation, Fuel cost, food cost, taxes going up, Interest rates skyrocketing, War and Business starting to lay off…
    Real every day issues….

  7. The USA is driven to collapse, by its own extreme, anti-Russia and anti- China, manufactured hatred, and sanctionings….

    It can reverse things, if it only reverses these stupid actions…..but due to pride and polirics, it can't, even to save its people….lol

  8. Powell only looks intelligent…..

    Mop-haired Yellen, doesn't even….

  9. We're still in the pandemic

  10. It's nothing wrong with the economy we need to be strong Face reality

  11. As an experienced journalist myself, this is a bunch of BS. That advisor is saying the businesses are suffering? Really? The same folks who are mostly reporting record profits and cash flows? What about the rest of us, the consumers? We are having to make the tough choices between food, housing, and gasoline to fill a car? And, they expect this do-nothing Congress to do something? They need to all be fired from their government benefits, salaries, and healthcare, and be out here in the real world for a while.

  12. The numbers are diffently outdated, in Maricopa County last week gas was $5.40, now it's $4.69.

  13. what is the rate of inflation in japan

  14. How about that baby formula.

  15. I see my gas cost down in Sacramento CALIFORNIA where I live. It's the oil corporations that has alot to with gas cost

  16. Biden needs to remind Israel that they should stop oppressing the Palestinian people.

  17. Those cops are a disgrace 👎

  18. Coward cops are all they are, bully's in blue clown costumes. DEFUND THE POLICE, take away their guns and send them to school to learn the law. Don't talk to the police, they don't have the intelligence to hold an adult conversation. Forget about it.

  19. Police were injured by gunfire so they had to fall back and wait for SWAT…Thats what they do! They dont commit suicide by rushing in without the proper gear to breach or the threat will shoot them and no longer be contained.

    It takes TIME to assemble a SWAT TEAM!

  20. Whats up with the voice in the background lol. I cant. Have seen so many independent youtubers with higher standards and better reporting.

  21. Sorry but if I want to hear BS I will watch Fox. Brad's opinion.simply isn't anything I'm interested in hearing.

  22. Journalists are so full of sh*t when they act like high gas prices are the most painful thing that we have ever experienced. Yes the gas companies are gouging us for no reason other than their greed and that should be a story! o they really think a higher gas price is worse than paying student debt. We're all fat and we could all eat less junk. Stop with the phony baloney crap about you know how we hurt. It just makes you look ridiculous.

  23. When you go to the Saudi stay there we don't need you here haven't done anything here but lie maybe you can gaffe the king prince ear off

  24. Big deal. The same stuff happened in 2007. Just on a larger scale.

  25. The coward police officials are to blame instead of 2nd amendment, they could have saved young lives but failed.
    Are there no job crime in US?

  26. No way you can put a positive spin on what Biden has caused and what is coming for the American people

  27. Who is making up these percentages? It’s a lot higher than whatever is being stated 🙄

  28. Been a bad year for Biden and the Democrats-Socialists.. But a worse time for Americans. Russia hoax exposed created by Hillary, her attorney and the Dems themselves too GET TRUMP that cost taxpayers millions and millions, this new bogus attempt is just another bust and again taxpayers pay the bill. Dem's campaigned for a certified moron in Biden who try's to shake hands with invisible people. Country over party Democrats lecture? Democrats intentionally hid Biden in his bunker from the American public and press because of his dementia to win an election (so much for 'country over party' hypocrites), record high gas price's, 40 year record high inflation and getting worse, 11 dead Marines, 71 billion in military equipment given to the Taliban and their terrorist friends in Afghanistan, Roe is history, abortion is now limited, millions of illegal aliens, drugs and terrorists crossing our southern border and Joe does nothing….still has done nothing. This in ONE years time! Biden is deteriorating mentally right before our eyes.

  29. Kristen really nails it as the show's host. She asks the tough questions while maintaining a dash of empathy and decorum. I have journalism training and experience, so I understand the media better than the average person. From my point of view, Kristen is one of the best anchors/reporters today.

  30. Taco Tuesday – Jill and Joe are racist of all People – remember good old Joe “Come On Man – you ain’t black if you don’t vote for me” and now Jill saying Hispanics are like Tacos ….
    Now we are in the worst economic crash / retirement savings Trillions wiped out, Inflation / Interest rates, Fuel cost everything cost double or more thanks to Joe’s failed leadership…

  31. Is your socialist State Representative listed?
    Congressional Progressive Socialists who recently voted “NO” on the bill to protect USSC Justices and their families. To this date the federal government has not supplied protection for the justices at their homes. Demonstrators at the Justices homes are in violation of two federal laws. Merrick Garland does nothing. This is the same group that voted for de-funding the police, voting rights for illegal aliens, 'Gun control', and support open borders.

    Maxine Waters (Calif.), Ilhan Abdullahi Omar (MN), Cori Bush (Mo.), Ayanna Pressley (Mass.) Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), Pramila Jayapal (Wash.), Joyce Beatty (Ohio), Jamaal Bowman (N.Y.), , , Adriano Espaillat (N.Y.), Jesús García (Ill.), Sylvia Garcia (Texas), Veronica Escobar, (Texas), Josh Gottheimer, (N.J.), Raúl Grijalva (Ariz.), Steven Horsford (Nevada), , Brenda Lawrence (Mich.), Barbara Lee (Calif.), Norma Torres (Calif.)

    *10 of the 28 listed are from NY & NJ.

  32. Whomever is the real person in charge of the country is scared to death of white supremacists. There answer is to literally flood the country from all over the world. Next on the list is to give them the right to voter or citizenship. Mayorkas is a pawn for Biden. Joe Biden is a pawn for ? Have you seen all the pregnant woman crossing the border? $15K a child birth with no complications. Schools, from K-12 it costs taxpayers on average of $122,000 for EACH illegal alien student. This does not include the millions spent on bilingual ED, instructors, daycare. School class size's are negatively impacted and our students suffer as a result. $3Million Dollars a DAY is spent to incarcerate, process Illegal aliens in the Criminal justice system. $2.2 Billion dollars a year is spent on food assistance program. Emergency services, every police, fire,paramedic for city & states increase dramatically. Taxpayers pay for all hospital, emergency room treatments, ambulances. Our children and grand children will be pay for this in the future as we will now.

    …………………..It's a great plan! Allow an invasion and the American taxpayers pay for the invaders themselves.

  33. Who watches this garbage?

  34. I think this pandemic has taught people the importance of multiple streams of income, unfortunately having a job doesn't mean security rather having different investments is the real deal.

  35. Heather Regurgitating Brandons BS

  36. Here’s the thing the Biden administration is a freaking joke

  37. American citizens may be in a recession. But the corporate world is rolling in the biggest profits that have ever grifted.

  38. As a parent, I would have ran right towards the shooter and do everything to stop him even if he killed me.

  39. When Does over printing Dollars come into play?

  40. The police at Uvalde were not scared of the shooter But of the High Power Weapon(s) he had. Selling guns is out of control.

  41. Everyone needs more than there salary to be financially stable. The the best thing to do with your money is to invest it rightly because money left for saving always end up used with no returns.
